Now that Zane knows he's A Robot, he has to keep it from others...
But Tiffany's the only one who knows...Right?
Or will others know?
All OCs belong to me and Ninjago belongs to LEGO.
Chapter 14: What's HIS secret?!
Zane and Randy were talking, talking about their love lives. Rochelle made Randy so happy, seeing all the cute pictures of them out on their days. he was glad that he wasn't the only one to find someone special. Zane showed him his own pictures, Randy smiled brightly at this. After all that happened to him, he finally had something going well for him. Finding out his friend was a robot was shocking but...It was something that he accepted, why? He was lucky to even HAVE Zane around, why really question it? Although, the lie itself seemed more believable compared to finding out your best friend was a soul transferred into a robot body...It sounds like Lily didn't care either, loving him regardless. And Randy DID ask if he could do the "Deed", Zane shyly looking away with a blush on his face as he gave a quiet yes. So he couldn't have children, not really a downside right now since it'd be the worst time for Lily to suddenly give birth to cyborg children...Zane asked if it was true about French men being great lovers, knowing Randy was of French Decent. Randy looked away just as Zane did with the same red dust on his cheeks, giving a quiet yes. Stereotype be damned, he was glad it was true for him. Zane chuckled, perhaps all those smiles on Rochelle were his doing? Oh, no...What has Jay and the others done to him? He was becoming all kinds of filthy! Behind them was Gene, stalking them without being obvious. After all when your reading, many assume your immersed in whatever world the little book had to offer. The book he had out was brown in tone, appearing to seem like a text book with it's blank looks. in truth, this was a book he dedicated to Zane. He had many details, all he found rather boring at first. He would go through his entire schedule like clock work, doing every task with clean precision. All of which were done perfectly and it was this perfection that he found interesting. All of it was done TOO perfectly, not one trip up, mistake or otherwise flaw. Humans tried to be perfect, an impossible feat. Even he wasn't without flaw, something he'd never admit to. One should NEVER admit to weakness, especially to an enemy.
There was also something else bothering him about the Blond, it was in the Stare. Every time Gene used the gaze, he'd see a flash of light before being greeted with skeleton and everything else that entailed. What was that, nothing interfered with the Stare. Something was reflecting off him, like a mirror...What was it though? Did it have something to do with his unique rank? He saw a girl approach them, he took in her green hair and eyes. She was pointing at him, Zane and Randy saw him and walked away. Did she tell on him? She merely waved at him and walked off, Gene followed her. Now who was this tiny whore and why did she snitch? He had her now, all alone in an empty class room? Not a wise one, was she? Neo just waved at him again, knowing he'd come. "Hi." She greeted. Gene froze her in place, holding his hand at her shoulder. Neo wasn't shocked by this, she KNEW she pissed him off. Charming and smart he was, Gene was prideful to a fault. He and Carla had this trait in common, with Carla being quick to anger and to act like a child. Gene was able to hide away all his emotions though she was sure if she made him really mad, he'd drop all his charm and wisdom. While she did want to study Zane, she wouldn't kidnap him for the answer. Something was different about him, she wasn't sure what but something to do with the brief shine with the gaze...
"I wouldn't play the hero if I were you, Heroes have a habit of dying." he said as he squeezed.
"No, I just like being a kill joy to rich snobs..." Neo sighed.
"I'd back off if I were you, I don't share subjects with anyone." Gene warned.
"Funny, neither do I. You two can't fuck your way into this one, not on my watch." She giggled.
Two? It was then they were greeted with Carla's presence, whom pouted at the two of them. Ugh, she thought Tiffany was the worst of it, now she had Wellson to deal with AND Gene. How she grew to hate this little whore, interfering with her attempts to catch Lily, was she an ally? Or was she merely marking her territory? This girl was a complete enigma, not even Tammy knew what she was thinking! Gene rolled his eyes, he should have guessed Carla had interest in Zane. Carla chuckled as she sauntered up close, holding her cheeks. Perhaps venturing into her mind would pry the dear open, why ask when you could simply look? Her eyes glowed, Neo's eyes dimmed. Gene sighed, Carla was so impatient. Carla screamed loudly, surprising Gene. Neo just smiled brightly with her eyes closed, free from guilt. Sounds like she saw into Aphrodite's mind, that girls gutter mind would make anyone scream! Served the spoiled rich girl right, looks like Slut-la had some innocence left for her to be that scared! Gene saw her expression, surprised even farther. Carla seemed genuinely scared with her hands onto her own face, tears in her eyes and a deep blush planted on her.
"H-How Perverted!" Carla shrieked.
"Perverted?!" Gene asked in confusion.
"I've never seen such perversion of the mind as hers!" Carla cried.
"I'm guessing you saw Aphrie's mind, her mind would make Havoc Garmadon look like a virgin! Sorry but your mind reading won't work on my M.P.D!" Neo laughed.
Gene sweated, he contemplated on reading her mind but know finding out that it doesn't work on her and the odds of him getting the same degrading mind that Sweetheart had the misfortune in reading wasn't something he wanted to do, Carla's petrified face told him that said toxic mind would make even the most philandering male blush! Neo merely walked over to Gene and Carla, seeing their noses bleed. Using their powers when they hadn't full control wasn't wise as it could cause great and irreversible damage, some crushed their brains by accident! Both noticed the innocent mending, what was her game? Neo shook her head, these two were so wary of her. She meant them no harm, nothing serious. All she wanted was for Zane to be left alone, whatever he had hidden away was for a reason. Don't forget that secrets and weaknesses can be extorted and used against anyone, someone's curiosity could spell another's death. Her rival obviously knew what Zane's secret was, why else would her behavior change completely? While she wanted to know, she just wanted to be told of it instead if it was THAT big. These two brats obviously couldn't but out so she do it for them the best way she and Tammy knew how...
Blackmail.
She held up two photos, causing the two to blush heavily. How on Earth did she get her hands on those?! The little green haired pixie just giggled, not so high and mighty,now were they? This is what happens when you go around and sleep with every person you met, people could take pictures of you and use them against you. In a way, she was just opening their eyes the best way they could be opened, the hard way. These two played that way so she had to too...Both were quite smart and had a bright future in any field they desired, it'd be a shame that if these pictures started floating around and put the kibosh on that. This also had the added humiliation of shaming their parents, ending their profession careers by showing off their terrible parenting. Both soon understood the power she had by having those, Carla grabbed them and ripped them up but found that too easy.
"Now if you two just keep your distance, those pictures can stay between us and nobody gets to know what little whores the two of you actually are..." She threatened while smiling softly.
Sure, they outranked her but all still lead human lives despite the demon forms. Rank meant nothing if your livelihood and reputation in the business world was crushed before it started. Who'd believe the word of a whore or a man-whore? She was the seemingly innocent country bumpkin being harassed by horn ball rich kids...Both backed off and left, she left herself. She bumped into Zane, whom was stunned at her. "Why are you helping me?" he asked. Leading the green haired girl to giggle again, confusing him. "My family and yours use to be allies so think of this as my way of patching things up...My apologizes for messing with you before." She said while winking in a semi-sad manner. She called "that" messing with him?! Wait, Allies?! She then bowed, adding that if he wanted any help, she would.
Lily was worried, Tammy showed up to help her with a classmate getting too hands-on with her. The girl had confessed her feelings, Lily politely rejected them. Only then did she find out the girl had a hard time with rejection! Anytime she went somewhere, this girl would latch onto her breasts and molest her! Tammy would then show up to stop her, chasing her around with her chain and proceeding to whack her with it. She found out that this was Nanette Frost, daughter to Georgette Frost. Nanette didn't seem to understand that she was in love with Zane, only for Nanette to grope her and tell her that she could do anything a man could! No, a better answer would be that she didn't care, she wanted Lily and didn't care if she wanted her. She didn't swing that way, why couldn't she just leave her alone! Male stalkers were one thing , her Father could make them run in terror! But a female, her Father couldn't come to her aid! Emily groaned, this little brat was annoy the hell out of her, how dare she grope her daughter like a ripe tomato!
Georgette smiled, seeing her daughter so happy brought her joy. She didn't mind that she liked girls, she picked such a fine dear for her future wife. Now if only she wasn't so wrapped up with Yuna's...SON...Grr, just remembering that damned woman made the left side of her face ache! How could Issac chose a butterfly over a mosquito!? Men, they truly had no taste for beauty! It was something only women could handle and treasure, it was pearls cast before swine when shown to men! Why else would he chose a Succubus whore over the graceful Were-Butterfly? All she ever did was shower him with love and he rejected her! For that...Blond bimbo! Lily's mother was another blonde whore, just much older. never mind that she was married to hairy beast! But, she'd swallow her pride and be nice, they'd be family soon. "Could you please do something about your daughter, get her off my daughter! I've seen men with more self control!" Emily hissed. She saw the distress on Lily's face, she didn't want any part of this! Georgette giggled, "Now,now Emily! My daughter is just showing her love, nothing wrong with that!" She giggled. Emily slapped her own face, it was no wonder why the young doctor fled in terror of this woman! Not only was she so blindly stupid but she mistook unwanted advances as loving gestures! But suppose this was what one gets when raising children under Eve's Law.
Some Families followed Eve's Law or Adam's Law, what did they mean? Well, if a Family was under Eve's Law, it mean that only Female family members had power in a family. Ruled under a Matriarch and only female family members could become said Matriarch once the elder passed. The opposite was for Adam's rule, where the male family members had more power and ruled under a Patriarch. The gentler of the two was Rule versus Law, which was what the Frost family was under. Don't get Emily wrong, such a system can work within a family and served greatly. But the way the Frost Family was doing it, it just showed that woman could be just as cruel as they reduced the men into submissive shells of themselves. Like Amazons, only the woman were in control of everything and the matriarch allowed it. She had to wonder if Georgette was actually married or she just raped someone until she got knocked up...She just doubt who she had was a man anymore...First of all, they would make the men bathe in ice cold water in the morning and at night, especially coming home to the Frost Manor. All to "purify" them. Emily felt terrible for these men, they weren't allowed even the luxury of a warm bath! Just seeing her rotten kid bothering her daughter told her that Nanette was beyond spoiled, her mother didn't even tell her no!
Lily held her hands up at the girl, having enough of her unwanted attention! She then whirled her arm to the left, slamming the girl into the wall. She was about to walk away, until she was then groped by her bloodied stalker! "Lillian, can't you see that I'm better any silly boy? Who else could take damage from your grand throws?" She asked weakly. Lily screamed at the top of her lungs, on the verge of crying. What the HELL was she?! Nanette felt a chain wrap around her neck, glaring at her attacker, when would that stupid dungeon master get lost, she saw Lily first! The Artist groaned, couldn't that dumb lesbian see that Lily was straight? Not to mention, that she didn't like her groping her chest at all? It was gross when guys did it, girls doing it was even worse as many didn't really say anything about it! If you don't want it, it's gross!
"Tamara dear, your sweet but I don't like artists..." Nanette grunted.
"Purple doesn't suit you...Can I make a suggestion?" Tammy asked.
Tammy yanked her chain, spinning Nanette. All saw Blue paint on her neck, the artistic master smirked. "Blue Squeeze!" she yelled. And with that shout, Nanette felt her throat squeeze and she collapsed. Tammy sighed, no matter how much she was hurt, she'd get up! This was the only way she could think would stop her, at least for today, she wasn't dead but Tammy felt she could use a nap...Georgette cornered her, how dare she hurt her baby! Tammy just glared at her, if it wasn't the false amazon! Maybe if she wasn't so busy acting like some Fem-nazi/ amazon love child, Nanette would't be so insufferable! All of her yelling were disturbing her painting, she scared off her model! Lily had agreed to let Tammy draw her, wanting a more...Chesty model. As for why, Tammy had many models for basic female anatomy. She didn't want Carla since she was a bitch, saving her for later. Due to Nanette's constant barging into her room and chasing Lily down, her project was going to be late! She hadn't had a bad grade in Art yet and she'd be damned if it started now! Before The woman slapped the girl, her arm was stopped and put behind her. Emily saw Yuna walked down the stairs, sighing greatly. Georgette just didn't know when to stop, now she was going around hitting girls? She hurt Lily before, how else did she get that nasty gash in her head? She DID understand that the girls she was about to hit was a child of a bounty hunter, right? A very well known and very good one at that, he and his partner had a 95% capture rate. So unless she had the much luck to nab that slim 5% to escape them, she had better back off. All she was doing was doing her a favor, just like she did with her face.
"Let go!" She grunted.
"Georgette, must I finish what I started and give you the full set? Make you blind AND deaf completely?" Yuan asked.
"Your son better get lost, Lily's a waste on him! What does a man know of beauty!?" She roared.
"What man chooses over a Butterfly for an Angel? None." Yuna taunted.
And with that, she threw her out the window, that ought to keep her out of their hair. Tammy thanked her, only getting asked on why she helped Lily. While she admitted that no model of hers should get hurt, she expressed that the Jones Family and hers had been in an alliance in the past. All she wanted to do was repeat the good idea, it worked the last time after all! Lily and the two women were confused, they were? Did Richard and Issac know of such an alliance? Well, if not either of them...One other would know: Ed.
We find Zane in a restaurant much later, night time in fact. He wanted to ask his Cousin a few questions about the alliance Neo told him about, was it true? Why her? Mother and Father were sleeping at the moment, a rare night off from BOTH jobs. And since Rin was older then he was, she'd HAve to know about it. She smiled fondly, Zane's mind was the famous Julien wisdom. No matter the subject, they excelled in it. Did it bother her that Zane wasn't human, she was surprised but quickly calmed down. Uncle Issac was a marvel, he found a loop hole in the system of life and dead! The Doctor of Death indeed! And to live Lady Death's wrath? Why, if she didn't know any better...She'd say her uncle earned the Reaper's favor...Rin assisted her cousin in helping his transformation, giving him blood pills. She had asked Lily for a sample of her blood, she offered it without hesitation. She advised him to use them in his food and drink to "steady" his appetite so he wouldn't take too much blood next time. She wasn't surprised to hear that Tiffany hadn't made such a stand by, stingy little girl, wasn't she? One would believe her to no want ANY of her siblings to be happy...But forking over even just a vial of your blood was considered a breach in security, one could study a family's weakness and take them down using biology.
She stirred her tea and began to explain the alliance Neo was referring to: Grandfather Julien and Neo's grandmother had such an alliance when they were young, an alliance that proved to be the wisest move as the two were very much alive thanks to it. Zane sighed, another family member he couldn't recall. Rin giggled, expressing that it wasn't all his fault. Grandfather Julien and Lady Wellson racked up quite the body count, their banishment was deemed necessary for public safety. Zane shook his head, so he couldn't really see his Grandfather. The nurse smiled at this, as if he needed the CITY'S permission to see his grandchildren, he and lady Wellson had their ways of getting around it, wouldn't have been at her 5th birthday to give her a gift if he didn't! "I'm sure he will be ascending onto us soon enough, Zane...He's very eager to see you again, he saw you when you bed ridden." She sighed as she sipped her tea. She hadn't seen grown men cry before, to see her own Grandfather weep was very stunning. But then again, there was the rumor of their family being cursed, all Julien men met their end one way of another. Great grandfather Julien perished in the diamond mines, their great uncles had perished in Darkley's halls, thus leaving Grandfather Julien seemingly unharmed enough to sire a family. He wasn't completely unscathed, he paid his price for his form.
He was rendered silent to the world at 17 years old, he could never speak again. But said man didn't let it become a problem, if anything, he seemed content with being a mute. Winter was a quiet season so he was just fitting more into his title...What title? Well, she already said a fair bit about him, let Zane find the rest out the same as she did: On his own. "What did he do? It's clear he killed but-" He asked. Rin held a hand at him, looking to her left. Seeing policemen walking in, Zane saw this himself, she pulled his head back to her before slipping it under the table. "Be mindful of your surroundings, cousin Zane. Just talking about it out in the open can make people suspicious of you, he's still very much a wanted man. Thus why nether of us are wearing anything tied to the schools right now...I don't want those naive policemen jumping the gun and harming you." She warned in a hushed whisper. Zane felt colder then normal, what on earth did his Grandfather do to have even the mere mention of his name cause such a response?!
But it seemed that Neo was telling the truth about an Alliance, since Rin confirmed it. Though, he felt that was merely HALF of the story. A man approached them, Zane pointed at him to ask if he was their grandfather, Rin shook her head. This overweight and balding man was definitely not Grandfather Julien, he had all of his hair still and was far from over weight. She knew who this was though, another patient at the hospital whom had fallen for her. Poor Uncle Issac had worked so hard to keep them at bay but quickly found out just why she was fired, she was just too pretty. The other nurses started getting jealous of all the attention she garnered, feeling ugly compared to her. Rin turned them all down, even this one. He seemed to have gotten out of the hospital, he hadn't taken a hint yet though. He saw the young boy with her and groaned, of course she'd be with some whippersnapper but to think she liked them really young...He didn't look older then 16! He shook his head, fine, then he'd win her over. No woman said no forever, she had a price. "Nurse Julien, I've come to make a proposition to you. I'd like you to be my private nurse, I'll triple my offer from before. Surely, you'd need-" he began until she looked at him. "Mr. Sarren, I've told you before that I will decline your offer. No amount of money will sway me, I make plenty on my own..." She answered. he snarled, how dare she do it again! All of his past nurses weren't as lovely as this one, he wanted her! She'd just make such a great wife! Zane was about to step in and say something, only for a familiar face to walk up to them. Havoc sighed, Rin just couldn't just keep them away, could she?
Mr. Sarren saw the blond man, he went over and kissed her cheek and gave her loving hug. "Zane, thank you for keeping an eye on Rin for me. The amount of men she attracts makes me worry..." he lied. He then watched as the rich man stormed out, leaving all to giggle at his childishness. Havoc snickered, served the old pervert right. He should find ladies his own age, young women just weren't cut out for some old timers...Zane held a gasp back, were he and Rin dating? Did Lloyd know!? Did Father know?! Both felt the anxiousness from him, "Yes, we are dating, Zane. Please don't tell Lloyd about this, he'll just lose his shit." Havoc asked while holding his finger to his lips. He nodded, finding this surprising. But wasn't he seen with a girl a few times? He thought about it some more, when all of it just clicked into place. Rin and Havoc were dating, with her lover's permission. And Havoc possibly had more then one lover, thus why the secrecy and thus why no one's heard of any two-timing arguments. All knew who was who, not caring. Just what WAS Havoc, was he a demon in a very clever disguise!? The King of Darkley would indeed lose his shit at finding out his elder brother had a harem, never mind What Shen Garmadon would AND do to him when he finds out! It was none of his business but he couldn't really condone such a tawdry affair, how was Rin ok with it?!
The two adults walked him back to the dorm, Rin blushed slightly. Havoc had his hand on her ass, squeezing it like a ripe cantaloupe. Havoc smirked at her while she turned to him, his carnal appetite knew no bounds. Rita would pout at being left out again...Only to see her girlfriend leaning against a tree with a cheeky grin. Ah, so he'd be entertaining the two of them this evening...What a gentlemen he was. "Rita, Rin...Let's take this somewhere more..private, hmm? Fun as this would be out here, I don't want anyone seeing you two naked other then me..." He sighed. Rita giggled and dragged him away with Rin in his other arm, "Your so greedy, Havoc..." Rita giggled. "Indeed but he is right, Rita dear...I don't think those girls should get to see Havoc Garmadon naked..." Rin sighed. Rita blushed while nodding, snuggling under the other arm. "damn right..." She flirted.
That was THEIR little secret...
Zane and Lily have trouble with Nanette, at least they have allies on their side. Zane also has his family too, learning that has a Grandfather! But he comes to find that Grandfather Julien has some notoriety, just saying his name makes cops come to arrest you! Just what had he done to get that kind of attention?! And knowing that Neo's Granny was an old Ally, Zane doubly suspicious of her. She helped him but he still doesn't really trust her, a good idea considering what she did to get Lily's attention...
As for Tammy, she wants her model unharmed and also spoke of an alliance. Lily of course is too smart to just take her word, since she "played" with her boyfriend. But why else other then protecting her model would make the tall artist go to her defense? As for Nanette, she seems to have it in her head that she can win Lily over. Please do not take Nanette as my views on actual lesbians, she's a model of the Lesbian stereotypes and a couple of lesbian classmates that I went to High School and College with...Not all Lesbians are sex maniacs or man haters...Like many, Nanette is misinformed. Her scornful Mother, being her source of information, has taught her EVERYTHING, for better or for worse...
She just wants to get revenge and have her daughter steal Lily away from Zane, getting back at Issac for rejecting her.
Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned... Welcome to a literal show case of that famous saying!
